Pure unadulterated guts

While everyone is watching Lance, let's give former Armstrong teammate Tyler Hamilton the respect he deserves. He's currently in 5th place and tied Lance's time today. He'd doing all this with a broken collarbone suffered over a week ago. That's one tough hombre! From MSNBC:

Alexandre Vinokourov, a Kazak rider for Team Telekom, remained second overall, 21 seconds behind the Texan. Spain’s Iban Mayo of Euskaltel-Euskadi is third overall, 62 seconds back. Tyler Hamilton, a U.S. rider and former Armstrong teammate, is fifth overall.

Recording the same time as Armstrong on Tuesday were Vinokourov (53rd place), Mayo (42nd), 1997 winner Jan Ullrich (34th) and Hamilton (36th).
